I knew that vmrun was installed as part of the VMware fusion install. I wanted to use my Mac to script a controlled suspend of VM's running on my ESXi Servers.
It appears that vmrun has no support for communicating with VM's running under anything but the local environment in the Mac compile of vmrun? The "usage" on vmrun seems to indicate the only ws | fusion are acceptable parameters for the -T (type) switch.
The "examples" provided in the usage actually demonstyrate commands running to ESX, but I can't get it to work. If I try to do this I get : Invalid host type 'esx' specified. Since the communications model is essentially identical...I don't see why vmrun on the mac should be any different from the garden variety linux compile.
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. Soliciting ideas.
